Our pal Paul (of the “Drink of the Week” segment on BFF.fm’s “Weak Ledes” show starring Nick Pal, formerly of the “Drink of the Week” column on Mission Mission) points out that Trick Dog has some kind of Malort!

(Somebody on Twitter points out that it’s not actual Malort, so to Malort lovers it’ll probably be like when I order a Fernet at some weird bar and they give me the “Fernet” that’s made in Colorado: it’s fine but it’s not Fernet.)

In any case, possibly really good news for Malort lovers probably? And also, does anyplace in this town have actual Malort?

Fernet Branca kind of built a brand in the states, bars were not stocking these other brands of fernet until Fernet Branca had become a big hit. it’s kind of like ordering a ‘Jack and Coke’ and getting served a cocktail with Jack Davis whiskey.

Agnes and J have a Binny’s guy – they bought all their wedding booze there. Probably worth giving him a call to ask what the how best to execute this transaction, although we’ll have to block off half an hour cuz dude is chatty as fuck.
